Stillgate 0.1.1 is the rename and correction release for the plugin previously published as Deployment Guard. It is not a feature release.

Changed

  • Renamed to Stillgate — Editorial Freeze for Deployments. The slug, text domain, main file (stillgate.php) and distribution folder are now stillgate. wp deployment-guard is now wp stillgate (there is no alias), and the settings screen is Tools > Stillgate (tools.php?page=stillgate).
  • Stored identifiers are unchanged, so existing sites keep their configuration, activity log and bypass roles: the deployment_guard_state and deployment_guard_history options, the deployment_guard_bypass capability, DEPLOYMENT_GUARD_FORCE, and every deployment_guard_* hook, filter and REST error code.
  • The classic admin notice now appears only on the dashboard and on screens that list or edit protected content (including custom post types and taxonomies). It explains how the freeze ends and disappears when it does.

Added

  • Safe coexistence with the earlier release: Stillgate stays passive, and says so on the Plugins screen, if Deployment Guard is still active. While Stillgate is running, deleting Deployment Guard no longer erases the shared freeze configuration, activity log or bypass capability grants.

Upgrading from Deployment Guard 0.1.0

  1. Install stillgate.zip but do not activate it yet.
  2. Deactivate Deployment Guard (this ends a freeze that is currently active).
  3. Activate Stillgate.
  4. Delete the old Deployment Guard copy while Stillgate is active. Do not delete it while Stillgate is inactive: that erases the shared settings.

Requirements

WordPress 6.6+ and PHP 8.1+. GPL-2.0-or-later. No telemetry and no outbound HTTP requests.

Installation

Download stillgate.zip below and upload it under Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, or unzip it into wp-content/plugins/.
